Photos of the Rare Lunar Eclipse! -by Ed

 Our friend Ed C., who is also an incredible photographer made the ultimate sacrifice this morning. He stayed up for the Lunar Eclipse of a lifetime and took photos seen here.

  Tom and I did see the lunar eclipse at 4 a.m. EST today as it was ending. We got up to get Tom to work (although I'm on vacation I still needed to feed him and the dogs some breakfast). It was Cool! - The eclipse happened the same day as the winter solstice in the Northern Hemisphere – a rare occurrence that hasn't happened in 372 years. Happy WINTER SOLSTICE... the shortest amount of daylight in any day of the year. It brightens up from here on! :)
